Using a default login and maintaining individual logins

[Cary Petterborg]

I have a patch that will allow Nagios to be set up with a default user,
but still maintain the individual users ability to login in so that they
may use their own views, etc. The patch changes only a couple of lines
in the current code base, putting almost all functionality in separate
and new files so that it may be easily integrated with other custom
changes.

 -- Is there *interest* in this for anyone else to use or incorporate?

FYI - the implementation uses cookies for the username and validation
information in each cgi that currently uses cgiauth. The cookie code is
very simplified. It uses a sha1 validation string to ensure that the
username isn't merely entered in a cookie to get around security.
